If you want to expand the RAM you have to go BTO which adds 12 days to delivery time.

Configured "correctly" they're changing $1700 for the machine - and you only have to wait around 2 weeks to get it.

I bought one today but I have not opened it, I think I'm going to return it and sit on the money until Apple delivers a entry level machine with 256GB (the bare bare minimum needed to install Mac OS X, some basic productivity programs, a small music library and maybe a small Bootcamp partition.) But on 128 that's nearly impossible.

128GB on a $1300 laptop turned out to be a deal breaker for me, frankly it should be embarrassing to Apple. 128GB SSD with these write speeds cost less than $30 dollars, and a 240GB version is less than $45.
